Join Chris as he analyzes & reviews (with FULL SPOILERS) AVP: Alien VS Predator, the big crossover sci-fi horror action event film directed by Paul W.S. Anderson.

This epic franchise-blender of a movie features a classic horror premise as well as both the uber-famous Xenomorph & Predator! Does it work for Chris? How does it compare the classic originals?

An ancient pyramid is discovered under the ice of Antarctica. We set up a hardcore battle between 2 extraterrestrial behemoths while also exploring the origins of civilization!

A polarizing 3rd act with an unlikely team-up for the big boss showdown all leave Chris about to burst. But does all of this live up to the potential of both beloved movie series'?

Join Chris en route to Alien: Covenant!

Join Chris as he analyzes & reviews (with FULL SPOILERS) Prometheus, the 'prequel' to the classic sci-fi movie masterpiece, Alien, directed by Ridley Scott and starring Michael Fassbender.

In this contemplative space horror film legendary director Ridley Scott returns to the Alien franchise with an entry full of mythos meant to explore the origins of both mankind and the mysterious space jockey introduced in the 1979 original!

We are drawn to a unknown structure on a distant moon with some deep & pure sci-fi. Ridley Scott's masterful visual eye is in full force here and it leaves so much to discuss.

The exceptional Michael Fassbender attempts to produce one of the greatest android performances depicted on screen - how does he fare?

An epic 3rd act gives us intense character reveals, hardcore horror, 'answers' to the engineers and the mysterious origin of the uber-famous Xenomorph.

Join Chris and Mark as they analyze & review (with FULL SPOILERS) Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi, the sequel to the 2 classic sci-fi movie masterpieces - this time directed by Richard Marquand.

It's finally time to review the final chapter of George Lucas' original space opera trilogy! Not only that but we have Mark's full theatrical experience from its time of release in 1983.

In the 6th entry of our Star Wars retrospective series we break down a new Death Star, a very powerful Luke, the Rancor, Jabba's palace and the evil Emperor Palpatine's final plan for the rebel alliance!

With another new director comes huge ground & space battles that may set a new standard for film.

We finish our 2nd trilogy with massive arcs for both Luke Skywalker & Darth Vader; ending in a final showdown and a climactic battle for the galaxy!

!Boba Fett alert!

Plus we debate a majorly impactful spoiler for the franchise.

Join Chris and Chelsey as they analyze & review (with FULL SPOILERS) Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them, the 2016 fantasy movie prequel directed by David Yates, starring Eddie Redmayne and written by JK Rowling.

Newt joins Tina, Jacob & Queenie (in America!) to capture some magical creatures - oh and also deal with the evil uprising of the terrifying dark wizard, Grindelwald!

This film franchise starter is a prequel to the Harry Potter saga (written solely by the one and only JK Rowling) - but does it even compare to the beloved original series?

Between catching pokemon, starting friendships and bottle-feeding an octopus, we also dive into deeply disturbing themes. Does the whimsical tone mix with the action and the dark? Is this even a kids movie?

Our villains begin a war that is major setup for a new massive magic movie franchise. Are we ready, and wanting, the 4 sequels?

It gets intense as we are a bit divisive in our very in-depth breakdown of Oscar-winner Eddie Redmayne's 1st venture into the wizarding world.

We invite you to help us find some billywigs, bowtruckles, mooncalves, Dan Foglers, erumpets and even a rare Johnny Depp!

Join Chris and Drew as they analyze & review (with FULL SPOILERS) Guardians of the Galaxy, Marvel's 2014 sci-fi comedy blockbuster movie directed by James Gunn and starring Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista, Bradley Cooper and Vin Diesel!

The 10th MCU film was a massive gamble at the time. A talking raccoon? Vin Diesel as a tree with only one line? A sexy Chris Pratt?! We all know it became a huge hit but how does the space opera fare for us?

We get plenty of easter eggs connecting this movie to the upcoming mega-film, Avengers: Infinity War. How does this film about our newest team of lovable heroes rank among Iron Man and Captain America's entries? Do any of the "typical Marvel flaws" plague this new origin story?

A rockin' soundtrack accompanies gorgeous & fresh visuals in a cosmic adventure that gives one of us a couple of Marvel's best moments on film.

And how do we feel about that unique climax?

Join Chris as he analyzes & reviews (with FULL SPOILERS) The Fate of The Furious, the 2017 blockbuster action movie sequel directed by F. Gary Gray and starring Vin Diesel, Dwayne The Rock Johnson, Jason Statham and Charlize Theron with a special appearance by Helen Mirren!

F. Gary Gray follows up James Wan's billion-dollar hit, Furious 7, with a bigger sequel and even higher stakes! Does the 8th installment in the epic The Fast and The Furious film franchise deliver on the very high series standard?

We head to the Cuba (the real Cuba!) as the mysterious plot has the leader of our elite spy family going Rogue.

There is a huge spoiler reveal in this film that has major ramifications for future entries in the Fast saga. Do a new villain (in Mad Max's Furiousa herself) and a new element of mystery pay off?

We've got trips to New York City, a Russian naval base, a massive action scene with zombies cars, a submarine, a new kind of action scene for the series AND.. Vin Diesel ACTING!...

Plus! Chris ranks the series.

Prepare yourself for booty shorts, burning tires, horrendous murders, more bald men and worst of all...Scott Eastwood!

Join Chris as he analyzes & reviews (with FULL SPOILERS) Furious Seven, the 2015 blockbuster action movie sequel directed by James Wan and starring Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Dwayne The Rock Johnson, Jason Statham and Kurt Russell with a special appearance by Ronda Rousey!

Justin Lin has left the high-octane 'The Fast and the Furious' franchise in the hands of Aquaman director, James Wan. Can Wan out-do Lin and leave an impressive stamp in the series' 7th entry?

No more prequels to Tokyo Drift! We finally get caught up in the epic F & F timeline as Jason Statham joins the cast, as the villain, on a warpath that gives us a Statham VS Rock fight!!!

This billion dollar film takes the action to a whole new level. But does it double-jump the shark? Do all of the bald men and fast cars deliver the goods?

We globe-trot from LA to Abu Dhabi all leading to a climatic mega-battle that includes an absurd amount of car deaths.

Most importantly, this is the final film in the series for the late Paul Walker (RIP) and they give the Buster quite the sendoff.

Does it all work for Chris? How does it fare among the rest of the series? Prepare yourself for muscles, engines, one-liners, baby oil and Wiz Khalifa as we lead up to The Fate of the Furious!

Join Chris as he analyzes & reviews (with FULL SPOILERS) Kong: Skull Island, the 2017 blockbuster action monster movie directed by Jordan-Vogt Roberts and starring Samuel L. Jackson, Brie Larson, Tom Hiddleston, Easy E and Dr. Dre!

Warner Bros. and Legendary have officially launched their Universal Monsters shared universe - dubbed the MonsterVerse! This is the 2nd entry in this film series; the 1st being 2014's Godzilla. Does the giant gorilla continue the giant lizard's success en route to King Kong VS Godzilla?

Chris dissects this reinvention of the ape, the myth, the legend as Kong establishes his dominance over our red-shirted, war-driven group of humans. Can Samuel L. Jackson's badass commandos pose a threat?

We explore more than just Kong himself as the island and it's various inhabitants suffer man's ignorance. With a near 200 million dollar budget, does Jordan Vogt-Roberts have what it takes to take the King to the next level?

Most importantly, is the inevitable climatic monster battle for the island spectacular?

Help Chris reveal the monstrous secrets of Skull Island, Kong, Godzilla and the monsters set to fight them. Beware: geekout warning!

Join Chris and Chelsey as they analyze & review (with FULL SPOILERS) Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince, the 2009 fantasy movie sequel directed by David Yates and written by JK Rowling.

Harry, Hermione and Ron enter their 6th and last school year at Hogwarts and the stakes are higher than ever! A massive budget upgrade as well as multiple huge revelations make this film installment an intense setup for the Boy Wizard's epic finale.

Our series-long debate kicks into overdrive as relationships spark, sizzle and are tested by their most drama-filled adventure yet.

Stakes are raised while mysteries run rampant as we try to figure out just who this Half-Blood Prince is. More importantly, why are they the focus?...

We get a bit silly with the teen antics but then hit the opposite gear as the franchise swings for an all-time emotional high in this penultimate chapter.

An insanely intense and heavy 3rd act give us showdowns and resolutions begging for discussion.

We humbly ask you to help us bear through ridiculous high school Drama, unanswered questions, Lavender's crazyness and for the last time - another Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher.

Join Chris as he analyzes & reviews (with FULL SPOILERS) the ENTIRE Resident Evil Film Series. From the original in 2002 to the Final Chapter in 2017 - Chris breaks down each entry and then ranks the popular(?) horror action movie franchise.

Paul W.S Anderson directs 4 of the entries, including the original, and writes the whole zombie series based on the incredibly beloved video game franchise.

Chris dissects the techno-filled original Resident Evil, braves the Apocalypse, survives Extinction, returns from Afterlife, suffers Retribution and caps off the 15-year film series with a full breakdown of Resident Evil: The Final Chapter.

Is the best video game movie somewhere in this 6-part saga?

Is Milla Jovovich a badass-enough heroine to keep the series entertaining for so long?

Help Chris reveal the secrets of Umbrella, the Red Queen, Wesker and the scariest of them all - Paul W.S. Anderson!
